A Lincolnshire couple have on Friday, April 1 both denied the murder of Wainfleet man Wayne Baxter.

Sean Booth, 25, and Sarah Booth, 36, both of Croft Bank, Croft, are alleged to have murdered Mr Baxter on March 2, this year.

The pair are accused of attacking Mr Baxter, who it is alleged to have suffered multiple stab wounds, at their home in Croft.

Wearing a grey top and jogging bottoms, Sean Booth was first to enter a ‘not guilty’ plea to the murder charge when they appeared together in the dock at Lincoln Crown Court.

His wife, Sarah Booth, wearing a grey top and grey cardigan, then also entered a not guilty plea to the same charge.

Mr Baxter, 44, was found at an address in Croft Bank, Croft, on March 2. He had suffered stab injuries and was pronounced dead at hospital a short time later despite the repeated efforts of paramedics to save him.
